Step into a purple paradise 🌿—the sprawling lavender fields of Xinjiang’s Ili region, named after the ancient Han Dynasty diplomat Princess Jieyou, are now the world’s third-largest lavender hub. But this isn’t just a pretty sight; it’s a fragrant symbol of international collaboration.
International delegates, including Aleinik Sergei, a key Belarusian official, recently toured the region. Sergei praised Xinjiang’s natural beauty and highlighted a decade of China-Belarus cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). 🌐 ‘This isn’t just about flowers,’ he said. ‘It’s about shared growth and trust.’
The lavender fields, which fuel local perfume and cosmetics industries, mirror Xinjiang’s blend of tradition and modernity. For young travelers and entrepreneurs, this story is a reminder: even the smallest petals can build bridges across continents. 💼✨
